Chapter 853 Leaving (1) Hannah's Call for Rescue

Susan didn't know how she slept. She was drifting off to sleep, as she was holding Manuel's clothes carefully fearing that he would slip away.

Susan woke up to see Manuel's handsome face and he was still sleeping. She didn't know the time but she could see the sun was already high. She looked at Manuel up and down, wondering whether he often sleep late or not.

Her eyes were focused straight on Manuel's near-perfect face. When they were little, Susan didn't like Manuel very much at the first sight of him, she was attracted by his appearance. He looked quite special when standing with other kids. Susan even had a mistaken idea that Manuel was a taciturn and shy girl.

Suddenly, she held out her hand and touched Manuel's straight nose, unconsciously. His nose was so perfect that she thought he had surgery on his nose. Then she landed her fingers on his lips. "How can a man's lips be so soft?"

When they kissed for the first time, Susan was quite bewitched by Manuel's lips. She still felt excited the instant she recollected Manuel's kiss last night.

"What should I do next?" she wondered. Her fingers gently caressed Manuel's lips involuntarily, and the touch made her feel hot. She was loath to take away her hands from them, and she dared not to kiss him, so she just kept stroking Manuel's lips to satisfy the urge.

"When do you stop?" Manuel asked, very suddenly.

Susan was startled and her fingers were caught by Manuel the instant she tried to draw back her hand and tuck herself in the quilt. She saw Manuel opening his eyes slowly. He seemed sober enough. "How long has he woken up? Does he know all I did just now?" Susan wondered. Her face turned red with shame, looking at Manuel and not knowing what to do for a moment.

He was also looking at Susan at this moment. He recalled that last night he heard Susan breathe evenly when he almost lost control. So he had to take a cold bath. And when he came back, he pressed the hem of his clothes into her hand.

He suddenly remembered the words Theodore said, he would be tortured by Susan. Now, it seemed right. He had thought he would never get closer to Susan if she didn't take the initiative. However, Manuel compromised with himself, over and over. He didn't know when he fell asleep last night.

Manuel closed his eyes, then felt a blazing gaze on him. Later, the one beside him started provoking him.

Lying on the bed, he was suppressing his impulsion for her hard, although he was having a physiological response to that. Perhaps Susan knew that but she could do everything at will. At the thought of this, Manuel felt exasperated.

When she met his gaze, Susan's heart was pounding in her chest, madly. She could hardly control herself if they continued looking at each other closely like that. And she was afraid that Manuel would kick her off the bed if she pawed at him more.

Seemingly bewitched by the man before her, Susan could feel that her desire was overwhelming her logic and reason. She was approaching him bit by bit.

Heart racing, Manuel was staring at her approaching face. Perhaps, with a single hint from either side of them, anything could happen next.

At this moment, they both seemed to read the other's mind.

Susan felt so tense as she wondered. "If he pushes me aside, I'll tell him I'm just sleepwalking." She always had the cheek to do anything before Manuel, she thought. Then she gritted her teeth and tried to kiss him with her eyes closed tightly. In the quiet ward filled with sexual passion, Susan's phone suddenly rang at that very moment. The sudden noise gave her a big scare, and she hastened to take her phone. After the accident yesterday evening, she was keeping her phone by her side all the time, in case she couldn't answer Hannah's phone call in time. Right now, Susan's guts told her the call was from Hannah. When she answered the phone, Hannah's voice was heard just as expected.

"Tell Manuel to help me!" Hannah cried over the phone.

Hannah had thought she would lie awake all night before Oscar's wedding day. She slept very well last night and got up very early the next morning.

Max rushed up to greet her, very respectfully, appearing that he tried to console her a bit on this big day of Oscar. Hannah was very peaceful, and she didn't know what she could say to explain to Max that she was fine. She felt a bit reluctant to leave him while eating breakfast. After all, Max was in all sincerity treating her these days.

"Have you ever thought of having a family of your own?" Hannah began, suddenly.

Max wore a startled expression when Hannah asked him, and his face turned red, "I've been used to being alone."

"Doesn't Oscar allow you to get married?"

Max responded immediately, "Yes, he does. Master Oscar had asked me to get married, and I just refused. I've been in the Wells family since I was little, and I've served Master Oscar since he was born. I only want to serve him and his children."

"Ms Cooper, I'll take care of the child when you give birth to him." Added Max.
